2. Booker's father sells computer software and earns a 4.25% commission on every software package he sells. How much commission would he earn on a software package that sold for $15,725? Round to the nearest cent. (Example 1)

Sagot :

To solve the exercise you can use a rule of three, like this:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{\$}15,725\rightarrow100\text{\%} \\ \text{\$}x\rightarrow4.25\text{\%} \\ x=\frac{4.25\text{\%}\cdot\text{ \$15,725}}{100\text{\%}} \\ x=\text{ \$}\frac{4.25\cdot\text{15,725}}{100} \\ x=\text{ \$}\frac{68831.25}{100} \\ x=\text{ \$668.31} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the commission earned will be $668.31.
